Finding a McGill Method Master Clinician

A Master Clinician Patient:

Has failed several previous clinical approaches and upon leaving the assessment will:
Understand their pain trigger mechanism
Clearly understand what to do to allow pain de-sensitization
Clearly understand how to build a foundation for painfree movement
Clearly understand some progressions and milestones
Have a report with a precise description of the pain mechanism (most of the time) sent to the referring clinician with a recovery plan
Have read Back Mechanic
Have a follow-up contact to quantify efficacy

Backfitpro Inc. assesses the familiarity and competency of the Master Clinician with McGill’s original material. Backfitpro Inc. is not responsible for the decisions and actions with individual clients/patients.

What is the difference between a 'McGill Method Master Clinician' and a person certified in the McGill Method?

McGill Method Master Clinician: Has the full confidence of professor McGill to assess the pain mechanism and show the patient how to stop the cause of their pain, then how to build a foundation for pain-free movement.

McGill Method Certified: Has attended McGills clinical courses and passed a knowledge competency test. They have not been assessed by professor McGill in their ability to create successful patients.

McGill Method Master Clinicians Around The World

The following people have been trained by professor McGill to perform a proper McGill assessment of your Back Pain. The assessment is designed to result in a specific diagnosis of your pain triggers (at least in 95% of people). Then, based on your specific triggers, you will be guided to avoid the triggers and allow the pain sensitivity to decrease. This will be followed with a specific exercise plan to build a pain free foundation for movement.

Dr. Stuart McGill

Dr. McGill is a professor emeritus, University of Waterloo, where he was a professor for 32 years. His laboratory and experimental research clinic investigated issues related to the causal mechanisms of back pain, how to rehabilitate back-pained people and enhance injury resilience and performance. This produced over 240 peer-reviewed scientific journal papers, many international awards, and has mentored over 40 graduate students during this scientific journey.Visit University Profile
